Trump diagnosed with ‘chronic venous insufficiency’ after leg swelling

After having his legs swollen and bruising on his hands, according to the White House, Donald Trump has been diagnosed with “chronic venous insufficiency.”

The condition, which has damaged veins, prevents blood from flowing properly, was described by White House spokesman Karoline Leavitt in a statement to reporters on Thursday.

Leavitt added that the condition is more prevalent “in people over the age of 70” after reading a letter from Trump’s doctor.

The 79-year-old Trump is the oldest person to hold the presidency in US history, and the election’s age debate centered on former US President Joe Biden.

Biden, who is three years his senior under Trump, later dropped out of the race after being pressured by his own party, allowing Kamala Harris to become the Democratic nominee. Despite this, Biden’s age and mental capacity have been criticized by the president.

Trump’s hand appears to be covered in apparent bruising at the White House in Washington, DC.

Leavitt stated on Thursday that there was “no proof” of more serious problems like “deep vein thrombosis or arterial disease.”

She claimed that Trump had “normal cardiac structure and function, no signs of heart failure, renal impairment or systemic illness,” and that his test results “were within normal limits.”

Additionally, the spokesperson inquired about bruises on Trump’s hand, which had sparked online rumors about his health.

According to Leavitt, the bruises were “consistent with minor soft tissue irritation caused by frequent handshakes and the administration of aspirin, a standard cardiovascular prevention regimen.”

Presidents of the United States have become a common practice, with information on their health disclosures now required, despite not being legally required.

Trump’s personal doctor, Harold Bornstein, wrote in a letter stating “absolutely” that he would be the healthiest person to be elected president in 2015.

Betfred Super League

St. Helens (0) 4

Try Robertson.

Leigh (4) 16

As his team maintained the pressure on the Super League’s top two with their first victory at St. Helens since 1982, Prop Joe Ofahengaue scored both Leigh Leopards tries.

After two Gareth O’Brien penalties gave the Leopards a 4-0 lead at the break, the Leopards were given a second chance by Ofahengaue’s cross midway through the second half.

Leigh’s gritty defense was largely unbreakable, but Saints, who had won five straight games, had plenty of possession in the first half of the game.

After Kyle Feldt spilled Lachlan Lam’s kick, Ofahengaue capitalized to score a second try before it was too late for the Leopards to fall behind behind Wigan in second place.

Sailor, Feldt, Robertson, Whitley, Dagnall, Lomax, Mbye, Walmsley, Wingfield, Delaney, Sironen, Lees, Knowles, and others.

Interchanges: Cowen, Whitby, Paasi, and Bennison.

Hodgson, Brand, Niu, Hanley, Charnley, O’Brien, Lam, Trout, Ipape, Ofahengaue, Halton, Hughes, Liu, Leigh.

McNamara, Tuitavake, Davis, and Badrock swap.

Top anti-corruption group flees El Salvador amid government crackdown

As President Nayib Bukele’s government intensifies its crackdown on dissenting voices, El Salvador’s human rights and anti-corruption watchdog Cristosal reports that it has relocated its operations abroad.

Cristosal announced on Thursday that it has relocated its workforce from El Salvador and that it intends to continue its work in exile.

According to Noah Bullock, executive director of Cristosal, “when it became clear that the government was prepared to persecute us criminally and that there is no chance of defense or impartial trial, that makes it unviable to take those risks any longer,” he told the news agency Reuters from Guatemala.

The Bukele government has increased its focus on individuals and organizations that examine the government’s record on issues like corruption and security, and threaten independent media and rights organizations with fake legal arguments, according to critics.

Ruth Lopez, a well-known anti-corruption and justice advocate for Cristosal, was detained in May on corruption-related charges. Organizations like Amnesty International and the UN have criticized her arrest.

In May, Bukele also made a new law requiring non-governmental organizations that receive funding from outside the country to file with the government and pay additional taxes.

Cristosal has been in El Salvador for 25 years, and his actions have drawn criticism from Bukele for their investigations into government corruption and reports on the human impact of the country’s campaign to stop gang activity.

El Salvador has ceased to be a state of rights, according to the organization’s statement on Thursday, which read “under a permanent state of exception and near-total control of all institutions.” “You could end up in jail by speaking out or demanding basic rights today.”

In March 2022, the Bukele government established a “state of exception,” granting the government and security forces unconstitutional powers and suspending important civil liberties. The government’s efforts have significantly reduced the power of powerful gangs, who had previously smothered Salvadoran cities with gang violence and exploitation.

Despite having many fans, those successes have had a significant impact on Bukele’s popularity: numerous people have been detained without charge, in terrible conditions, and without any way to contest their detention. Additionally, Bukele is accused of working with powerful gang leaders in the background.

The government has continued to use the extraordinary powers under the state of emergency, which dissidents claim are being used to target and harass human rights advocates and government critics, despite the claim that violent crime has decreased to record lows and that gangs have been eliminated.
